A massive blunder throw in from Bacary Sagna saw Portugal win the ball in the midfield. After some slick combination of short passes, Eder found himself on the edge of the box and scored the goal of his life from the outside of the box.

THE MASTERMIND

Santos’s men were the victims of huge criticism for their negative defensive tactics, which saw them fail to win a match in normal time until the semi finals against Wales.

It’s a style of play the Portuguese players are not known for, but it has produced their countries first international trophy.

We may not have seen the greatest Portugal team, but the way Santos was able to discipline so many big name, big personalities was the major difference.
